The overall goal of the Center for Human
Modeling and Simulation is the modeling and animation of human movement. That central
topic drives a number of related research interests covering a broad scope from image
synthesis to natural language interfaces. www.cis.upenn.edu/~hms/home.html

Simulate an airport landing and takeoff
pattern. The airport has 3 runways, two primarily for landing and one
mainly for takeoffs. There are two arrival holding pattern queues for each
of runways 1 & 2 and three departure queues, one for each runway. The
queues are to be kept as close to the same size as possible. www.delphiforfun.org/Programs/airportsim.htm

ASCEND IV is both a large-scale object-oriented
mathematical modeling environment and a strongly typed mathematical modeling language.
Although ASCEND has primarily been developed by Chemical Engineers, great care has been
exercised to assure that it is domain independent. ASCEND can support modeling activities
in fields from Architecture to (computational) Zoology. www.cs.cmu.edu/~ascend

SansGUI is a modeling and
simulation environment for developing and deploying scientific and
engineering simulators without writing any graphical user interface code.
It provides simulation developers with an object-oriented development
environment to define the model building blocks of target systems and
implement their behavior. The simulation users configure models from
these building blocks, enter model parameters, run simulations, monitor
execution progress, view dynamic charts, examine intermediate and final
simulation results in the highly interactive SansGUI Run-Time Environment.
Animated 3D graphics driven by the simulation code can be accomplished
through its OpenGL support. http://www.protodesign-inc.com/sansgui.htm

Shift

Shift is a programming language for
describing dynamic networks of hybrid automata. The Shift model offers the proper
level of abstraction for describing complex applications such as automated highway
systems, air traffic control systems, robotic shopfloors, coordinated submarines and other
systems whose operation cannot be captured easily by conventional models. www.path.berkeley.edu/shift

Simulink

Simulink is an interactive environment for
modeling, analyzing, and simulating a wide variety of dynamic systems, including discrete,
analog, and mixed signal systems. www.mathworks.com/products/simulink

The College on Simulation is organized and operated exclusively for
educational and scientific purposes: (a) to encourage the development and
dissemination of knowledge in the area of simulation; and (b) to promote communication and
interaction among individuals and organizations who share an interest in simulation.
